I created this analysis with the help of Sam Erickson and Andrew O'Neill. We read through the article thoroughly and ended up choosing point number 1. We found point number one an interesting topic. We gave our analysis on how this affects others. We related the topic to the apostles and all of Jesus's followers.
Mathew 16:18-19, but he did not institute the corrupt human side of
the early Church. Jesus did not intend for the pope to have absolute,
worldly power, but to the contrary, he intended a leadership based on
his authority. This is very similar to a monarchy, where one
individual has power to guide their subjects. Unlike a monarchy, the
pope does not have absolute power, but rather he is a shepherd,
guiding his flock to the glory and love of God, the same way Jesus led
all of his followers to God. Occasionally, power did get to a pope's
head, turning him corrupt and into a leader with absolute power, not a
guide, which is one of the consequences of having a singular conduit
of power.
